Unknown Broadcast returns with classic old-time radio horror stories—radio suspense steeped in paranoia, poison, prison clocks, and a blade that never stops its kiss. Settle in, my dear: this ghost stories podcast slips between classic OTR chambers—Mystery Theater, Escape, The Whistler, and more—where alibis are stitched on ocean liners, serpents nest under sheets, and justice keeps perfect time. Tonight's anthology is candlelit, close-mouthed, and very patient. Breathe quietly.

Lee brings a rare blend of analytical precision and deep insight into human behavior to his thrillers—creating stories packed with suspense, moral tension, and unforgettable twists.In this episode, we talk about the craft of writing thrillers, the influence of real-world systems and social dynamics on fiction, and how moral questions elevate mystery and suspense. J. Lee also shares insights into his writing journey, his inspiration, and what drives the pulse-pounding stories readers love.If you enjoy smart thrillers, complex characters, and conversations that go beyond the page, this episode is for you.
Vanessa, on continue de découvrir — ou redécouvrir — nos villes sanctuaires. Le tourisme spirituel et culturel attire de plus en plus de visiteurs. Ce matin, direction l'Isère, à La Salette.Un sanctuaire perché en pleine montagne, à 1 800 mètres d'altitude, recouvert d'un manteau blanc en plein hiver. Magique. Mystique. Que l'on soit croyant ou non. Une chose est sûre : c'est l'un de mes préférés. Ici, on entre dans un autre monde, au-dessus du monde, suspendu en haute montagne, au cœur de la Matheysine. Et vous allez voir que cette expérience peut être spirituelle… mais aussi très sportive, là où on ne l'attend pas !Suspense ! Pour commencer, racontez-nous la genèse de Notre-Dame de La Salette.Nous sommes le 19 septembre 1846. Deux jeunes bergers, Maximin et Mélanie, se réveillent d'une sieste dans le vallon. Face à eux apparaît une « belle dame » — ce sont les mots des enfants. Elle est en larmes et leur transmet un message de réconciliation : les hommes doivent retrouver la foi, revenir à l'Église et cesser de blasphémer.Après l'authentification de l'apparition, une grande église ouvre ses portes aux fidèles en 1854, à 1 800 mètres d'altitude. Depuis, des pèlerins du monde entier viennent y chercher la paix, notamment des Indonésiens, des Polonais et des Italiens. Ils se recueillent devant les grandes fresques d'Arcabas — Le Christ et les Quatre Vivants de l'Apocalypse — des œuvres très colorées. Arcabas était un véritable peintre de l'âme.Et puis, on peut aussi randonner. Eh oui, nous y voilà ! Grimper le mont Gargas jusqu'à 2 200 mètres d'altitude, ou même assister, sous la croix de Rougny, à une messe au lever du soleil… en été.Et sans assister à une messe, nous aussi, Vanessa, on peut grimper. Vous avez d'autres suggestions à découvrir ?Alors, on reste d'abord dans les sensations fortes. Vous pouvez marcher au-dessus de gorges profondes pour vous imprégner de la puissance de la nature. Comment ? En empruntant les passerelles himalayennes de Mayres-Savel. Autre option : suivre la Route Napoléon, qu'il a empruntée lors de son retour de l'île d'Elbe pour renverser la monarchie. Plus calmement, vous pouvez profiter du panorama à bord du train électrique de La Mure, installé dans d'anciens wagons restaurés : une sortie très sympa à faire en famille.Noël au sanctuaire est chaleureux et réconfortant. Il y a de la place : le site dispose de 500 lits.Fiche pratique https://www.villes-sanctuaires.com/ Notre dame de la Salette : https://lasalette.cef.fr/Blanquette de veauCe plat magnifique qui figure parmi les plats préférés des français serait, à l'origine (au moyen-âge), une manière d'accommoder les restes du rôti de veau. Pour éviter qu'il ne soit sec, on le servait avec une sauce blanche.Plusieurs régions ou villes revendiquent sa création : la Normandie, le Poitou ou Lyon. La première recette apparaît en 1735 dans Le Cuisinier Moderne de Vincent de la Chapelle. Le plat est alors très simple : des restes de rôtis de veau servis avec une sauce au bouillon et à la crème, liée à la farine et aux jaunes d'œufs. Le tout est accompagné d'oignons grelots et de champignons de Paris. La recette va évoluer, avec une tournant important au 19e, les restes sont remplacés par de la viande crue pochée.Ingrédients pour 4 personnes- 1 kg de poitrine ou d'épaule de veau désossée- 3 carottes- 200 g de champignons de paris- 1 oignon- 1 cube de bouillon de volaille- 20 cl de crème fraîche entière- 2 jaunes d'œuf- 1 verre de vin blanc- 1 cs à maïzena- 1 citron- sel / poivreDéroulement- Faire revenir les morceaux de veau dans du beurre- Singer (saupoudrer de maïzena)- Verser le vin blanc, l'eau et le bouillon cube- Ajouter l'oignon, les carottes et les champignons lavés et taillés grossièrement- Laisser mijoter 1h30- Mélanger les jaunes d'œufs et la crème et lier- Rectifier et ajouter un jus de citron Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Looking for terrifying Christmas horror stories to binge this December? This Weekly Spooky holiday special unleashes nine brutal Christmas horror tales packed with killer Santas, vengeful Krampus spirits, murderous androids, and snow-choked nightmares — the perfect Christmas horror podcast compilation for wrapping gifts, long drives, or late-night chills. Settle in for over-the-top holiday carnage as we revisit listener-favorite stories from across the Weekly Spooky vault, curated into one seamless Christmas horror anthology. From backwoods bloodbaths and cursed gifts to AI Santas gone rogue and Christmas Eve in a haunted psych ward, this bingeable episode delivers everything you love about the season… and everything you're secretly afraid of. Inside this episode:• All I Want For Christmas — by Morgan MooreA devoted father wants to give his daughter the perfect Christmas… even if it means doing something unimaginably horrific. As his plan spirals out of control, this tale asks just how far love — and denial — will go when the holiday lights are glaring and the secrets are buried deep. • Blood on the Snow — by Shane MigliavaccaOn Christmas Eve, bodies are piling up and a brutal killer stalks a snow-swept road. When a stranger stumbles into a roadhouse full of uneasy locals, blizzard-bound murder mystery turns into a fight for survival against something far more vicious than the storm outside. • Santa Claus is Killin' the Town — by Morgan MooreA cozy trip home for the holidays becomes a small-town Christmas slasher when an old local legend crashes the party. At the quaint Chamberlain Inn, tinsel, nostalgia, and hot cocoa give way to blood, panic, and the horrifying truth behind the town's festive folklore. • Krampus Is Comin' — by Rob FieldsA young woman becomes host to the spirit of Krampus on Christmas Eve, and suddenly the naughty finally get what's coming to them. This one is a bloody revenge fantasy where ho-ho-ho turns into no-no-NO as Krampus uses her body to settle every score. • Operation Deadly Night — by Keith TomlinA futuristic Santa Claus mod for home androids is supposed to spread cheer… until a glitch turns them into jolly killing machines. Families across America find themselves barricaded in their own homes, battling friendly-faced robots who only want one thing this Christmas: your last breath. • Dead Silent Night — by David O'HanlonLust, dark elves, and twisted tradition collide in a wickedly funny Christmas nightmare. What starts as a kinky holiday encounter turns into a deadly game where the “helpers” of the season have teeth, claws, and a very different wish list than you were expecting. • 12 Days — by Mike AshkeweFar from Earth on a ship called the Roanoke, a pilot trapped in deep space faces AI sabotage, time slipping, and existential dread over twelve long days of Christmas. This eerie sci-fi tale turns festive countdowns into a cosmic death sentence where no signal home can save you. • A Christmas to Remember — by Joe SolmoDonnie finally comes home hoping for a fresh start, but the sins of his past are waiting under the tree. As old grudges ignite and fate takes a grisly turn, this story pushes holiday redemption into a dark corner where forgiveness and revenge are soaked in blood. • Xmas at the Psych Ward — by Bruce HaneyIt's Christmas Eve in a 1960s psychiatric hospital, complete with strange patients, questionable treatments, and staff who are hiding more than they heal. When the snow falls and the power flickers, holiday cheer curdles into institutional horror — and someone (or something) inside isn't staying in their room tonight. Whether you're decorating the tree, wrapping presents, or doom-scrolling through December, this Christmas horror stories marathon is built for bingeing: one epic episode, nine chilling tales, and enough killer Santas, Krampus justice, and winter nightmares to carry you straight through the season.Hit play, my spookies, and make Weekly Spooky your go-to Christmas horror podcast for long winter nights.
